Chapter 108 Fu Jingyou, come here
The main room suddenly became empty. Fu Jingyou looked at He Hongjin awkwardly, "Uncle..."
He Hongjin raised his hand. "Alright, I know what you're going to say. Let's leave it at that. You do what you said. As for Lu Zhiqing..."
He Hongjin frowned and sighed:
"If it was a girl from an ordinary family, your uncle and aunt would have helped you fight for her, but this Lu Zhiqing is really not an option. From now on, don't interfere in her affairs anymore."
He Hongjin knew Fu Jingyou's temperament very well. After he finished speaking, he looked at Fu Jingyou and said seriously, word by word:
"You're not a child anymore, don't make me worry about you and your aunt all the time."
Fu Jingyouling's lips twitched slightly, and finally he pursed them in unbearable pain. At the same time, his messy hair covered his eyes, and he lowered his head dejectedly.
His heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and Fu Jingyou felt that everything around him seemed so suffocating.
Lu Miao’s military background.
The He family's kindness in raising me...
The pressure piled up like a mountain, and many things seemed to have been given a death order at this moment.
How to strive for this situation?
How else can we fight for it?
In the end, what should I do...
…
In the kitchen.
Chen Guifen was standing at the table cutting peppers while Lu Miao squatted beside her washing potatoes. After waiting for a long time without her speaking, Lu Miao thought for a moment and took the initiative to ask:
"Aunt, what on earth do you and uncle want to talk to me about?"
"Ahaha, this..."
Chen Guifen's expression was a little unnatural.
"It's nothing else, actually."
Chen Guifen paused, prepared her speech, and then began to talk about the matter:
"Lu Zhiqing, there's been some dirty talk circulating in the team lately. Your uncle thinks it's having a bad influence on the female comrades, so he asked me to come over and ask about the situation."
Lu Miao's movements were half a beat slower, and her rolled-up sleeves slipped slightly. She put the potatoes into the basin, pulled her hands out and rolled up her sleeves, then continued to wash the potatoes silently.
In the gap between them, Chen Guifen saw her snow-white elbows exposed and couldn't help sighing in her heart.
How could such a spoiled girl be kept in a remote village like theirs...
But if they really broke up the couple, her child would probably be half dead.
Chen Guifen was struggling internally. She didn't want to see her own child sad, but she also felt guilty and afraid of hurting the girl.
People are all made of flesh and blood. Fu Jingyou is not even her biological son, but she has raised him since he was a child and she still feels so sorry for him. So what about this girl?
She will have to return to the city sooner or later. Not letting her go would be like clipping her wings. How sad and distressed would her parents and family be?
The more she thought about it, the more she thought about it. Chen Guifen hardened her heart and said decisively:
"Lu Zhiqing, you are a smart girl. You know what my aunt means."
"You have a bright future ahead of you, and there are many paths you can take. I've loved you since the moment I saw you, so I don't want to, and can't, block your path, let alone harm you."
"Whether those rumors are true or false, Auntie has something to tell you. You are of good family background, but Jingyou is a kid who everyone hates. He is not worthy of you and will only drag you down!"
"Even if you don't consider anything else, you have to consider yourself. If you get too close to him, there will be no good results!"
Chen Guifen was determined to make Lu Miao realize the seriousness of the matter, but she was too hasty and her language was too extreme. Not only did she completely put Fu Jingyou in a low position, but there was also a deliberate tone of derogation between the lines.
This hit Lu Miao right in the bud.
Throwing the potatoes back into the basin with a "bang", Lu Miao stood up suddenly.
"Aunt, you've always been so caring towards me, and I've always liked and respected you! But what you said today really disappointed me!"
From the moment he heard the "dirty talk", Lu Miao was mentally prepared to face Chen Guifen's words.
She thought of many possibilities, but she never expected that Chen Guifen would persuade her in such an extreme way that it was almost like stabbing Fu Jingyou in the back.
"I know his background, and you know his background too. You're the one who raised him. Don't you know what kind of life he's had since he was a child?"
"For so many years, everyone has pointed fingers at him, but you guys haven't! But think back to what you just said. If he heard it, wouldn't he be heartbroken and sad?"
"You can tell me this, which means it's essentially for his own good. But if you think about it from a mother's perspective, wouldn't you feel heartbroken for him? How could you have the heart to say such things!"
The backstab of someone close to you is more lethal than anyone or anything else.
Just like Lu Miao never cared about what others thought of her, but cared most about the attitude of her own people. After spending so much time with Fu Jingyou, she also understood that Fu Jingyou had the same temperament as her in this regard, or perhaps it was the case with most people.
From childhood to adulthood, He Hongjin and Chen Guifen have basically been Fu Jingyou's emotional pillars and the only people from whom he can get a little warmth. What would Fu Jingyou think if he heard these words?
How is he going to cope with it?
"I am a junior, both emotionally and logically. Whatever I heard and said today was inappropriate."
Lu Miao closed his eyes, trying to calm the anger rising in his chest.
After all, Chen Guifen was an elder, so she couldn't say some things too directly, so she changed the subject and said:
"I understand what Aunt and Uncle mean. I appreciate your consideration and care for me, but I also have my own ideas!"
"Whether it's right or wrong, I have my own judgment in my heart, and no one else can make the decision for me."
Lu Miao spoke in a cold tone and left, leaving Chen Guifen standing by the kitchen table.
"This child..."
Chen Guifen opened her mouth in surprise, and was so shocked by Lu Miao's words that she couldn't recover for a long time.
On the other side, Lu Miao had already rolled up his sleeves and walked into the main room with a sullen look on his face.
He Hongjin had seen her spoiled and naughty temper. When he saw her out of the corner of his eye, he put down his pipe and stood up subconsciously.
"Uh, Lu Zhiqing, your aunt..."
Lu Miao's chest heaved. Without even glancing at He Hongjin, he took two steps forward, glaring at Fu Jingyou who lowered his head, and shouted angrily:
"Fu Jingyou, come here!"
Fu Jingyou paused and slowly looked up. Lu Miao had already stormed out of the yard in front of him.
At that moment, there was no time to think. Fu Jingyou stood up and chased after him.
He Hongjin behind him wanted to stop them, but before he could even say a word, the two men had disappeared.
"Hey! Tell me about this little girl!"
"What's wrong?" Chen Guifen came out of the kitchen, glanced around the main room, and asked, "Where's the person?"
